I was in agreement with you. The talent is there, I don't know if he has the killer in him that his dad had.

Losing 2x to Michigan and Georgia in the semis last year and being the 2nd or 3rd option on his team in big games doesn't scream generational talent. But the 19 year dbacks across the way were focused on shutting down MHJ so Egbuka was freed up to cook...generational talent all the way, getting shut down by Indiana, not unlike Justin Fields when he was at Ohio State.

Hussra coming out strongly against MHJ has my attention.

If you look at the top 20 WR best seasons in ncaa history, maybe 3 of those guys amounted to anything in the nfl.

who cares about a season, how about win a meaningful game; maybe even a generational talent could be the reason a team wins? e.g., Cooper Kupp dragging the Rams to a Super Bowl victory.

Did you watch the Ohio State and Michigan game? When they threw the ball in his zip code he caught it. Ohio State wasn't beating Georgia last year. It's not like they lost to TCU.

One of his better games, yes; but generationally great? Nah.

Whichever one Caller Idiot wants, you should hope the Bears draft the other.

Your first sentence only serves to support my argument.

Your second sentence is so vague as to have almost no meaning. How is "success" defined in this context? A Pro Bowl player? An NFL starter? A good college player but marginal NFL player? A college player who doesn't make it to the pros? A high-level high school player?

When it ends up wrong he just shrugs his shoulders and moves on to the next bad opinion

which bad opinions would those be? Like when I predicted in September before the first snap of this season that Lamar would be MVP and
the Ravens win the Super Bowl? Terrible opinions, for sure.


I just think it's odd that all we heard about all season is how Marvin Harrison Jr is the 2nd coming of Randy Moss and it turns out he's more Iraqi Republican Guard than an actual winning talent:

Where do you place MHJ in this draft class? Where do rank him when it comes to WRs? Who would you take with the first pick?

you also have the Bears making the playoffs with Fields being a stud

You throw enough shit against a wall you are going to hit once in awhile.

What did Randy Moss "win" in college? You are all over the place here.

Bears missing the playoffs by 1 W?

Fields stays healthy, I think there's 1 more W in the games Bagent kept throwing picks in:



and the way the media and fans love, love love them some Justin Fields...Fields QB's the Bears back to the post-season, they probably would've found a way to give him some kind of award, maybe the MHJ Commemorative Generational Talent award.

then take a look at pennix playing for IU when he was younger with talent that was bottom of the big 10

Hell if I know, I mean, isn't the combine kind of important for these things?

Current feeling after watching his youtube shit....If he checks out with the doctors, you take Penix IF you're the Bears / a team on Bears timeline. Bears O-Line should hold up well enough to keep him from taking too many shots. Penix only took 10 sacks all season, only 2 multiple (2 sacks ea) games

Bears probably rather not start all over with a raw 20-21 year old rookie QB. Bears situation is an exception where Penix age/experience make him the better pick over potential head-case Caleb and many unknowns with the others. Course the combine + other info will no doubt come out btw now and last week of April

MHJ was the best WR talent in a group that included Olave, Wilson, Smith Njigba and Egbuka. They all look good to great in the NFL.

I don't think anyone worried about taking Olave and Wilson high in the first round. I wouldn't worry about MHJ.

He is better than Odunze but I wouldn't split hairs too finely with this years top WR. They are all good. Odunze doesn't get as much separation as MHJ and Nabers. If you are keeping Fields, you better get a guy with separation if you want Justin to throw him the ball.

that's my sense that if MHJ's name weren't Harrison Jr, he'd still be yet another good to great OSU WR entering the NFL. Seems to be a halo effect from the name that makes folks think he's going straight from Columbus to Canton.

Ever since Matt Millen ruined the Lions for years taking Wide Receivers draft after draft in the top 10, gun-shy about taking a WR that high in the draft--unless it's a legit once in a generation receiver like a Moss or Megatron. Or you're pairing up a Joe Burrow with his security blanket receiver type situation.

No question MHJ will be the 1st WR off the board in the draft.

I think you are reading me wrong. Olave and Wilson were almost immediate Pro Bowl level WR after being top 10 picks. That's Harrison's floor.

Would Odunze be considered a top prospect if he weren't playing with Penix?

It would make him the best prospect since Michael Sam.
